ovl: add support for "xino" mount and config options With mount option "xino=on", mounter declares that there are enough free high bits in underlying fs to hold the layer fsid. If overlayfs does encounter underlying inodes using the high xino bits reserved for layer fsid, a warning will be emitted and the original inode number will be used. The mount option name "xino" goes after a similar meaning mount option of aufs, but in overlayfs case, the mapping is stateless. An example for a use case of "xino=on" is when upper/lower is on an xfs filesystem. xfs uses 64bit inode numbers, but it currently never uses the upper 8bit for inode numbers exposed via stat(2) and that is not likely to change in the future without user opting-in for a new xfs feature. The actual number of unused upper bit is much larger and determined by the xfs filesystem geometry (64 - agno_log - agblklog - inopblog). That means that for all practical purpose, there are enough unused bits in xfs inode numbers for more than OVL_MAX_STACK unique fsid's. Another use case of "xino=on" is when upper/lower is on tmpfs. tmpfs inode numbers are allocated sequentially since boot, so they will practially never use the high inode number bits. For compatibility with applications that expect 32bit inodes, the feature can be disabled with "xino=off". The option "xino=auto" automatically detects underlying filesystem that use 32bit inodes and enables the feature. The Kconfig option OVERLAY_FS_XINO_AUTO and module parameter of the same name, determine if the default mode for overlayfs mount is "xino=auto" or "xino=off".

ovl: provide a mount option "volatile" Container folks are complaining that dnf/yum issues too many sync while installing packages and this slows down the image build. Build requirement is such that they don't care if a node goes down while build was still going on. In that case, they will simply throw away unfinished layer and start new build. So they don't care about syncing intermediate state to the disk and hence don't want to pay the price associated with sync. So they are asking for mount options where they can disable sync on overlay mount point. They primarily seem to have two use cases. - For building images, they will mount overlay with nosync and then sync upper layer after unmounting overlay and reuse upper as lower for next layer. - For running containers, they don't seem to care about syncing upper layer because if node goes down, they will simply throw away upper layer and create a fresh one. So this patch provides a mount option "volatile" which disables all forms of sync. Now it is caller's responsibility to throw away upper if system crashes or shuts down and start fresh. With "volatile", I am seeing roughly 20% speed up in my VM where I am just installing emacs in an image. Installation time drops from 31 seconds to 25 seconds when nosync option is used. This is for the case of building on top of an image where all packages are already cached. That way I take out the network operations latency out of the measurement. Giuseppe is also looking to cut down on number of iops done on the disk. He is complaining that often in cloud their VMs are throttled if they cross the limit. This option can help them where they reduce number of iops (by cutting down on frequent sync and writebacks).

ovl: fix lookup failure on multi lower squashfs In the past, overlayfs required that lower fs have non null uuid in order to support nfs export and decode copy up origin file handles. Commit 9df085f3c9a2 ("ovl: relax requirement for non null uuid of lower fs") relaxed this requirement for nfs export support, as long as uuid (even if null) is unique among all lower fs. However, said commit unintentionally also relaxed the non null uuid requirement for decoding copy up origin file handles, regardless of the unique uuid requirement. Amend this mistake by disabling decoding of copy up origin file handle from lower fs with a conflicting uuid. We still encode copy up origin file handles from those fs, because file handles like those already exist in the wild and because they might provide useful information in the future. There is an unhandled corner case described by Miklos this way: - two filesystems, A and B, both have null uuid - upper layer is on A - lower layer 1 is also on A - lower layer 2 is on B In this case bad_uuid won't be set for B, because the check only involves the list of lower fs. Hence we'll try to decode a layer 2 origin on layer 1 and fail. We will deal with this corner case later.

ovl: detect overlapping layers Overlapping overlay layers are not supported and can cause unexpected behavior, but overlayfs does not currently check or warn about these configurations. User is not supposed to specify the same directory for upper and lower dirs or for different lower layers and user is not supposed to specify directories that are descendants of each other for overlay layers, but that is exactly what this zysbot repro did: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/repro.syz?x=12c7a94f400000 Moving layer root directories into other layers while overlayfs is mounted could also result in unexpected behavior. This commit places "traps" in the overlay inode hash table. Those traps are dummy overlay inodes that are hashed by the layers root inodes. On mount, the hash table trap entries are used to verify that overlay layers are not overlapping. While at it, we also verify that overlay layers are not overlapping with directories "in-use" by other overlay instances as upperdir/workdir. On lookup, the trap entries are used to verify that overlay layers root inodes have not been moved into other layers after mount. Some examples: $ ./run --ov --samefs -s ...

ovl: modify layer parameter parsing We ran into issues where mount(8) passed multiple lower layers as one big string through fsconfig(). But the fsconfig() FSCONFIG_SET_STRING option is limited to 256 bytes in strndup_user(). While this would be fixable by extending the fsconfig() buffer I'd rather encourage users to append layers via multiple fsconfig() calls as the interface allows nicely for this. This has also been requested as a feature before. With this port to the new mount api the following will be possible: fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", "/lower1", 0); /* set upper layer */ fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "upperdir", "/upper", 0); /* append "/lower2", "/lower3", and "/lower4" */ fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", ":/lower2:/lower3:/lower4", 0); /* turn index feature on */ fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "index", "on", 0); /* append "/lower5" */ fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", ":/lower5", 0); Specifying ':' would have been rejected so this isn't a regression. And we can't simply use "lowerdir=/lower" to append on top of existing layers as "lowerdir=/lower,lowerdir=/other-lower" would make "/other-lower" the only lower layer so we'd break uapi if we changed this. So the ':' prefix seems a good compromise. Users can choose to specify multiple layers at once or individual layers. A layer is appended if it starts with ":". This requires that the user has already added at least one layer before. If lowerdir is specified again without a leading ":" then all previous layers are dropped and replaced with the new layers. If lowerdir is specified and empty than all layers are simply dropped. An additional change is that overlayfs will now parse and resolve layers right when they are specified in fsconfig() instead of deferring until super block creation. This allows users to receive early errors. It also allows users to actually use up to 500 layers something which was theoretically possible but ended up not working due to the mount option string passed via mount(2) being too large. This also allows a more privileged process to set config options for a lesser privileged process as the creds for fsconfig() and the creds for fsopen() can differ. We could restrict that they match by enforcing that the creds of fsopen() and fsconfig() match but I don't see why that needs to be the case and allows for a good delegation mechanism. Plus, in the future it means we're able to extend overlayfs mount options and allow users to specify layers via file descriptors instead of paths: fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_PATH{_EMPTY}, "lowerdir", "lower1", dirfd); /* append */ fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_PATH{_EMPTY}, "lowerdir", "lower2", dirfd); /* append */ fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_PATH{_EMPTY}, "lowerdir", "lower3", dirfd); /* clear all layers specified until now */ fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", NULL, 0); This would be especially nice if users create an overlayfs mount on top of idmapped layers or just in general private mounts created via open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE). Those mounts would then never have to appear anywhere in the filesystem. But for now just do the minimal thing. We should probably aim to move more validation into ovl_fs_parse_param() so users get errors before fsconfig(FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE). But that can be done in additional patches later. This is now also rebased on top of the lazy lowerdata lookup which allows the specificatin of data only layers using the new "::" syntax. The rules are simple. A data only layers cannot be followed by any regular layers and data layers must be preceeded by at least one regular layer. Parsing the lowerdir mount option must change because of this. The original patchset used the old lowerdir parsing function to split a lowerdir mount option string such as: lowerdir=/lower1:/lower2::/lower3::/lower4 simply replacing each non-escaped ":" by "\0". So sequences of non-escaped ":" were counted as layers. For example, the previous lowerdir mount option above would've counted 6 layers instead of 4 and a lowerdir mount option such as: lowerdir="/lower1:/lower2::/lower3::/lower4:::::::::::::::::::::::::::" would be counted as 33 layers. Other than being ugly this didn't matter much because kern_path() would reject the first "\0" layer. However, this overcounting of layers becomes problematic when we base allocations on it where we very much only want to allocate space for 4 layers instead of 33. So the new parsing function rejects non-escaped sequences of colons other than ":" and "::" immediately instead of relying on kern_path().

/* Traps in ovl inode cache */
ovl: fix regression caused by overlapping layers detection Once upon a time, commit 2cac0c00a6cd ("ovl: get exclusive ownership on upper/work dirs") in v4.13 added some sanity checks on overlayfs layers. This change caused a docker regression. The root cause was mount leaks by docker, which as far as I know, still exist. To mitigate the regression, commit 85fdee1eef1a ("ovl: fix regression caused by exclusive upper/work dir protection") in v4.14 turned the mount errors into warnings for the default index=off configuration. Recently, commit 146d62e5a586 ("ovl: detect overlapping layers") in v5.2, re-introduced exclusive upper/work dir checks regardless of index=off configuration. This changes the status quo and mount leak related bug reports have started to re-surface. Restore the status quo to fix the regressions. To clarify, index=off does NOT relax overlapping layers check for this ovelayfs mount. index=off only relaxes exclusive upper/work dir checks with another overlayfs mount. To cover the part of overlapping layers detection that used the exclusive upper/work dir checks to detect overlap with self upper/work dir, add a trap also on the work base dir.

ovl: implement volatile-specific fsync error behaviour Overlayfs's volatile option allows the user to bypass all forced sync calls to the upperdir filesystem. This comes at the cost of safety. We can never ensure that the user's data is intact, but we can make a best effort to expose whether or not the data is likely to be in a bad state. The best way to handle this in the time being is that if an overlayfs's upperdir experiences an error after a volatile mount occurs, that error will be returned on fsync, fdatasync, sync, and syncfs. This is contradictory to the traditional behaviour of VFS which fails the call once, and only raises an error if a subsequent fsync error has occurred, and been raised by the filesystem. One awkward aspect of the patch is that we have to manually set the superblock's errseq_t after the sync_fs callback as opposed to just returning an error from syncfs. This is because the call chain looks something like this: sys_syncfs -> sync_filesystem -> __sync_filesystem -> /* The return value is ignored here sb->s_op->sync_fs(sb) _sync_blockdev /* Where the VFS fetches the error to raise to userspace */ errseq_check_and_advance Because of this we call errseq_set every time the sync_fs callback occurs. Due to the nature of this seen / unseen dichotomy, if the upperdir is an inconsistent state at the initial mount time, overlayfs will refuse to mount, as overlayfs cannot get a snapshot of the upperdir's errseq that will increment on error until the user calls syncfs.
